lUmfafecences: of a &ri)ool gear at &outt)lan& 

College 



Landonia had worked hard all the long hot summer, 
faithfully picking cotton in her father's big cotton 
patch. How tired she had often grown dragging the 
long cotton sack behind her, and her fingers and back 
ached, and her head swam until she could hardly see 
the great big balls of cotton before her. But picking 
cotton was different and more interesting this summer 
than ever before, because every pound of cotton only 
added that much more money which would be the means 
of taking her to Southland College that fall. 

At last the cooler October days came. Eight or ten 
times that day before her departure she had peeked in- 
to the new little trunk where were folded away her 
simple but scrupulously clean clothes. The journey 
was all too short, and there at the little station was the 
wagon and the big mule team. Landonia and her 
mother got in and after a two-mile drive they reached 
what the colored man who drove called Southland Col- 
lege. He pointed out to them the large school building,

THE CRESCENT 



Central Hall, where the white teachers live and where 
the big students' dining room is located, the boys' hall, 
and the girls' hall. All of which looked magnificent in 
Landonia's eyes. At last they drew up before Central 
Hall and were greeted by the kind president and the 
sweet-faced matron. Landonia thought she was going 
to be afraid of the president, but after he had given her 
her school books, and called a girl to show her to her 
room, she felt much better, and thought she surely had 
never seen any one smile so pleasantly as he. 

The next morning it was with a great big lump in 
her throat that she said good-by to her mother, and all 
day she seemed to hear her mother's parting words, 
"Now you all be a good chile, 'cause yer papa and ma- 
ma wants ter be proud of you." That day the matron 
assigned her outside work; she had hoped to do dining- 
room work, but her mother could not pay full tuition, 
so she was given kitchen work. It seemed rather hard 
at first to make up dough for two hundred biscuits each 
meal, but it was lots of fun to bake them in the great 
big kitchen range. School work was fine, and to be 
"gettin' larnin' from a white teacher," was truly won- 
derful. 

One day the cook told Landonia to get a chicken 
ready for dinner. She picked out a fine plump one, 
carefully pulled all the feathers out, without even stop- 
ping to kill the poor chicken. Then, 0 grief! the hen 
got away from her and ran out into the yard without a 
feather on its back. This attracted some of the smaller 
children and soon a whole row of pickaninnies were 
running after the frightened chicken which took refuge 
clear under the laundry. The president, hearing the 
noise, arrived on the scene just in time to see a feath- 
erless chicken disappear and hear its frightened cry. 



THE CRESCENT

He began to reprove Landonia, and to tell her it hurt 
the chicken just as badly to have its feathers pulled out 
that way as it would to pull her hairs out one by one. 
The big black tears rolled down her bright, shiny face 
as she sobbed, "Why, yer al'ays pick geese alive!" 

That evening she stood outside the parlor and lis- 
tened to the beautiful music. The quartet was practis- 
ing a song for Sunday, and how she loved singing! The 
chorus of the song especially attracted her attention: 

"Pilot me, pilot me! 
Take the helm in Thine own hand, 
Bring my sinking barque to land. 

Pilot me, pilot me! 

Jesus, Savior, pilot me! 

She was overcome, and folding her hands she prayed, 
"0, Lor' if youse only will sen' down salyation and 
speak peace to my soul, this pore sinful niggah will 
nevah do a wicked thing no mo'." That winter at the 
big revival meeting Landonia really got religion, and 
she never was so happy 4n ail her life as she ran down 
the aisles shouting, and clapping her hands, shaking 
hands, first with one then another. Her face was glo- 
rified with the new light which had sprung up within 
her. 

One memorable day, Sam, one of the big college 
boys, asked her to go to a party with him next Friday 
evening. That very evening he asked her, she closed 
the door of her room and with the help of her chum 
they used the hot iron on her hair to straighten it out, 
and having a bottle of "nokink," a generous supply was 
put on. Then the hair was all braided up into a dozen 
or more little pig-tails and was kept that way until the 
night of the party, when they were all combed out, and 
her big, beautiful hair bows were pinned on. "If only 



4 



THE CRESCENT 



Ise had more hair," she said. "My mother has ten 
children and Ise the only one who is deformed." "And 
how are you deformed?" asked her friend. "Why can't 
youse all see? Ise ain't got no hair!" Nevertheless, 
she enjoyed the party immensely. She had never seen 
tables look more beautiful; the white teachers had dec- 
orated them, and they were loaded with good things to 
eat. 

How quickly the school year flew by! Commence- 
ment was near at hand, and to take part in the final 
exhibition meant lots of work. Her mother and father 
were coming, so she must do her very best. She was 
in the May-pole drill and every evening it was neces- 
sary to go round and round the pole and learn all sorts 
of intricate movements. The white teacher who was 
drilling them said it was the most beautiful part of the 
program. But for her life she couldn't see anything 
beautiful in going around a bare pole holding on to a 
long muslin string. But the day before the final per- 
formance, with the pole wrapped in blue and with red 
and white streamers, it seemed much nicer. At last 
the long-looked-f or day arrived. Her mother and father 
were there and the whole chapel was crowded with col- 
ored folks who had come from far and near to hear the 
program. After recitations, songs, and dialogues, the 
May-pole drill was given. It was applauded again and 
again, and all the girls felt repaid for the hard work 
they had put into it. 

The next day was Commencement. Early in the 
morning people began to arrive, in fact they had been 
arriving all week. At last all were crowded into the 
chapel eagerly waiting to hear the orations. The piano 
began to play and in filed the teachers followed by the 
graduating class. A solemn hush fell over the audience 



THE CRESCENT

as one by one the orations were given, and each mother 
gave a sigh of relief as her son or daughter finished his 
production. The quartet solemnly but sweetly sang 
"Crossing the Bar." Then as the piano played softly 
all quietly left the room. 

In the afternoon about five hundred colored people 
were gathered together on the campus, and there was 
an incessant chatter as old friends met who had not 
seen one another since last Commencement. Altho 
there was much happiness that day, among the students 
there was sadness because this was the day of parting. 
Landonia's little trunk was already packed and placed 
in the big wagon, and slowly together with her father 
and mother they rode away, while the students were 
singing: 

-'Southland College, how we love thee! 

Thou hast taught us lessons true, 
And we never will forget them, 

But will use them all life through. 

Southland College, now we're leaving, 

But we hope to come again; 
Tender memories round thee clinging, 

Make us hor.or and love thy name." 

E. Jones.

Cape Kiwandi, a small promontory on the Coast 
about forty miles north of Newport, often witnesses 
some exciting fishing scenes. Many of the people in 
the neighborhood of Springbrook and Newberg, spend- 
ing their vacations along that part of the beach, visit 
this place for the purpose of trying their luck at catch- 
ing black bass. 



6 



THE CRESCENT 



On the south side of the cape a small cove is washed 
out in the rocks. As might be expected the pleasantest 
places for fishing are not often frequented by the fish. 
To catch the fish it is necessary to get out on. the low 
rocks on the southwest side of the inlet, which is pos- 
sible only at low tide, and often is not very safe then, 
especially if the wind is blowing. 

The black bass which are caught there are rather a 
gamy fish of good size. A six- or seven-pounder is 
nothing uncommon. They travel in large schools feed- 
ing upon the smelt, which they drive in to the shore in 
order to catch them more easily amongst the rocks. 
As a school comes in they are jumping after the smelt 
so hard that they come clear up out of the water and 
turn over, going down again with a splash. Such a 
sight is enough to excite and thrill any angler, and if 
we could only have the privilege of seeing our worthy 
President Pennington in action on such an occasion, it 
would undoubtedly be worth more than the experience 
of catching several bass ourselves. 

One chilly, foggy morning last August, when the 
waves were pounding hard on the rocks and the tide 
would not go very low, my friend, Paul, and myself 
made our appearance at the fishing place. A few oth- 
ers were there before us, but had caught nothing as yet 
As it lacked an hour or so of low tide we whiled away 
part of the time fishing on the east side but had no 
success as we expected so we soon came back and start- 
ed for the west side. 

We had just about reached there when I noticed the 
fish were beginning to jump and splash at the surface 
of the water and remarked, "Guess I'll fish a little." 
As Paul was of the same mind, having spied the fish 
also, we quickly took up positions on some of the nearer 



THE CRESCENT

rocks where there was no danger of getting anything 
more than a good ducking from the boisterous waves 
that were dashing about them. And, oh my! you ought 
to have seen the fish! (It almost equaled some of 
Dick's fish stories.) It was the largest school we had 
ever seen in there and they seemed to be the hungriest, 
for we scarcely had our hooks in the water before each 
of us had a fish, and they kept biting so fast that we 
had no time to help each other land them as we usually 
did. 

Then some one shouts, "Look out for that wave!" 
and we looked around in time to see a huge wave com- 
ing, but were too late to run, so we braced our feet and 
took it, getting wet to a little above our knees, with a 
few quarts of spray coming down on us from above for 
good measure. But what does a little wetting like that 
amount to when the fish are biting fine? The water 
was literally full of them, and they were right up close 
around the rocks so that it was no trouble getting a 
hook out to them. 

We were using artificial minnows and bamboo poles 
about twenty feet long which were not stiff enough to 
lift the fish clear out of the water. So after getting 
one to the top of the water or up to the rocks we had to 
wade out in the shallow water to get them and carry 
them back out of reach of the waves, which were wash- 
ing over the rocks every two or three minutes. 

The two of us caught nineteen bass from that place 
in a comparatively short time; in the meantime, how- 
ever, getting soaking wet up to our waists, and com- 
paratively damp the rest of the way up. Indeed, I re- 
member distinctly of getting several good sized drops 
of spray, from one big wave, down my neck, which 
caused a pleasant feeling for a while as the ocean wa- 
ter is very cold.

While we were resting a little from our labors with 
the fish and the sea, some of our fellow-fishermen, who 
had not had such good luck, came up and wanted to 
buy our tackle. We had about all the fish we wanted, 
and as we were expecting to leave camp in a day or two 
anyway, we sold out all except some ordinary hooks 
and a little extra line. 

Gathering up our catch, we carried them to the top 
of the precipice overlooking the fishing grounds. From 
here we noticed that the bass were just as plentiful as 
ever and apparently as hungry so we decided that we 
needed a few more to fill out our string. We found a 
couple of old wooden poles in the brush to which we 
tied some line and a hook. Armed with these we went 
down the hill, picked up some smelt for bait, and waded 
out about knee deep into the water and went to fishing 
again. By this time we thoroughly enjoyed being in 
the water and having the waves come pretty well up to 
our waists. We soon satisfied ourselves by adding thir- 
teen more to our string and decided that the rest were 
better saved for another time. Paul donated his pole 
and line to some other people who caught several more 
before we finally got out of sight. 

Our thirty-two bass made a load of about one hun- 
dred and thirty-five pounds, which was quite sufficient 
for two to carry up a long sand hill at an angle of about 
forty-five degrees. By making two trips we all arrived 
at the top and after another hour's work reached camp, 
a little tired of course, but with the biggest catch of the 
season. H. H. H. '15.

The summer conference held at Columbia Beach, 
June 14-23, will have a good sized representation from 
Pacific College. Already several have made known 
their intention to go and doubtless others will decide to 
attend. The delegation last year was the largest we 
ever had— there being eight— and we want to keep up 
the size of the delegation. It means much to the as- 
sociation if it has leaders who are up on methods and 
are acquainted with the work of sister associations. 
Beside those practical benefits is the inspiration gained 
at one of these conferences. No association can prosper 
unless its leaders are inspired in their work, and there 
is no place so fitted to give inspiration and a deepening 
of spiritual life as a student summer conference. 

There has been a slight decrease in the attendance 
at our devotional meetings and yet there is a good 
spiritual atmosphere in the meetings. The co-operation 
of every one in the meetings is a noticable feature in the 
past month. During the spring and summer is the time 
to lay up store for next year's work. By very earnest 
prayer and consistent work, and life let us make a suc- 
cessful year possible. 

Lewis, Hawkins, Hadley and Pickett have been 
leaders for the respective devotional meetings this 
month. Our devotional meetings are constantly a 
source of help to us. 

The new officers elected are Arthur B. George, 
president; Olin C. Hadley, vice president; Harry Ha- 
worth, secretary, and Ellis Pickett, treasurer.

MCMINNVILLE 9, PACIFIC 2. 

Pacific was defeated in the first game of the season 
by McMinnville College, on April 6, at McMinnville, 
the score being 9 to 2. Mac started out by scoring three 
runs in the first inning. In the second they were un- 
able to score but they got one run in each of the next 
three innings and three in the seyenth, making nine 
runs in all. P. C. had several chances to score in the 
early part of the game but failed on account of mis- 
plays. The two runs finally acquired by P. C. were 
made in separate innings and were both earned. Mac 
made most of her runs on errors, but showed the better 
form throughtout the game. P. C showed lack of prac- 
tice and was weak in batting and infielding. 

This was the first game of baseball ever played by a 
Pacific College team against another college. It is only 
in the last few years that base ball has been taken up 
by the smaller colleges of Oregon, but it has come to 
stay. It is not fair to place a ban on college base ball 
because there are some questionable features connected 
with professional base ball. It can be made as clean 
and manly as any other college sport and it justly de- 
serves the popularity accorded our national game. 

In spite of the unfavorable weather, our team is im- 
proving rapidly- and when we meet Mac in the return 
game, P. C. will be able to give a good account of her- 
self. The line up at Mac was as follows: Craven, c- 
Smith, p; Parker, lb; Wiley, 2b; Lewis, George, 3b; 
Butt, ss; Elliott, If; Langworthy, cf ; Replogle, rf.

With this issue the new staff takes up the duties 
which fall to our lot. We realize that our responsibility 
is a great one, but we hope that, with the support of 
the school, without which we could do very little, we 
may be able to hold the high standard which the Cres- 
cent has held in the past, and possibly by our united ef- 
forts we may be able to advance a few notches. 

The school paper is just as important as the athlet- 
ics and other student activities as far as representing 
the school is concerned, as it is sent to the various 
schools throughout the United States which we carry on 
our exchange list. Thus we see that it is necessary to 
make our paper a good representative of the school. 
This should not be done by just a few, but each student 
should take it upon himself to help make the paper one

We certainly appreciate the work being done in our 
behalf by the Ladies' Auxiliary. They have looked aft- 
er our needs in a way that shows their interest in the 
school. Their latest help is in raising the amount 
needed for the sidewalks about the college. Work is al- 
ready under way on the grading of the grounds and the 
construction of the walks. These walks are needed 
badly, and they will add a great deal to the appearance 
of the building and grounds.

In the final debate of the Intercollegiate Debating 
League of Oregon, held at Albany, Ore., April 26, Al- 
bany College won the League championship for the year 
by defeating Pacific College whose team defended the 
negative side of the question, "Resolved, That boards 
of arbitration with compulsory powers be created to 
settle disputes arising within the United States between 
employers and employes. " In the preliminary debates 
Albany had defeated Willamette University, and Pacific 
had defeated McMinnville College, the same question 
having been used in all debates. 

Two of the graduating class of 1911 visited the Col- 
lege April 18th and 19th. Mr. Falley Rasmussen is at- 
tending U. of 0. and Miss Laura Hammer is teaching 
in the High School at North Yamhill. The College stu- 
dents are glad to learn that they are both enjoying 
their work and are making good. 

Prof. Johnson (in Ornithology)— "Russell, are the 
feathers of a bird distributed uniformly over its body?"

Russell — "No; they're just scattered around any 
way, and where they can't get in a feather they put in 
a little hair." 

Miss Elizabeth Fox, the territorial secretary of the 
Y. W. C. A. in the Northwest, is now making her vis- 
iting tour to the different associations in her territory. 
She will be the guest of Pacific College Y. W. C. A. 
May 7, 8, and 9. 

The class in vocal expression has produced marvel- 
ous results in the voices of some students. In some of 
the reports in European History class such a soothing 
and restful tone quality is used as makes it difficult to 
keep slumber from the eyes of the professor. 

The debate boys were accompanied to Albany by 
Prof. Hawkins, manager of the team, and Miss Lucile 
Davis, secretary of the Oregon Intercollegiate Debating 
League. On the following Monday morning Prof. 
Hawkins read in chapel from the first edition of "The 
Quaker City News Mangier." the report of the debate. 

One day a robin with a protruding bunch of feath- 
ers on its breast caught the notice of the Ornithology 
students. Several theories were advanced as to the 
cause of this peculiar top-knot, but Earnest Thun's the- 
ory of "crop failure" put all others to hasty flight. 

On Saturday, April 13, the Ornithology students and 
others "especially interested in birds," a crowd of 
twenty-three in all, under the supervision of Professor 
Johnson, went on the steamer "Seon" up the Willamette 
to the mouth of the Yamhill river for a day's bird hunt. 
The "Seon" left the crowd here with two row boats and 
sufficient picnic spirit for a crowd several times twen- 
ty-three. For lunch each person was expected to look 
out for No. Al. All reported a very profitable day spent. 

P. S. —It has been reported later that a few speci- 
mens of the warm blooded vertebrate of the class Aves 
and orders Anseres and Passeres were seen on this trip.

The Pacific College mixed quartet sang a number of 
selections in chapel April 5. The student body showed 
their appreciation by a very hearty applause. The 
members of the quartet are, Coririne Bartholomew, so-

Claude Lewis, bass 

Pacific College has been represented twice in the 
teachers' institutes of Yamhill county by President Pen- 
nington, Prof. Hawkins, and the C liege quartet. On 
April 6 these mentioned gave the program which closed 
the Teachers' Institute at North Yamhill Saturday 
evening. The party went in sections- Pres. Penning- 
ton drove over in the morning. Four of the company, 
starting at three o'clock in the afternoon, found the 
Imperial bus quite spacious until Lafayette was reached, 
where Messrs. Langworthy and Lewis were taken in. 
Undoubtedly Prof. Hawkins would like to have it stated 
that he and Miss Seely on the front seat made splendid 
time (at driving), North Yamhill being reached at 6:30. 
On inquiring about the M. E. Church where the pro- 
gram was to be held, it was ascertained that there was 
no instrument except an organ in the church; and this 
fact, the singers and accompanist insisted, made their 
part of the program an impossibility. But Pacific Col- 
lege usually has the men for the hour., and the gentle- 
men of the party carried the public school piano down 
several flights of stairs and two blocks to the church. 
This exercise seemed only to put the participants in bet- 
ter trim for their parts on the program. Pres. Pen- 
nington delivered a splendid address, the subject of 
which was, "The Four Faces, "and Prof Hawkins gave 
several readings which were enthusiastically received. 
The quartet rendered their selections in a manner re- 
flecting credit upon all. After the program the Impe- 
rial bus left North Yamhill with all Pacific's represent- 
atives. The long ride was pleasantly passed with an 
impromptu program, songs by the troupe, comic read- 
ings by Pres. Pennington and Prof. Hawkins, and a
